If you want something done ask a busy woman.

Our PTA president is a CPA, mom of 5 and serves on 4 boards in our community.

 

Makes me feel kinda guilty.

 

Do you agree or disagee that busy people get more done?

Wow that's some schedule! But does she have time for the kids?

Appears so.

But my main question is are busy people more efficient in time management and their personal lives?

No not necessarily.

One would have to be efficient and well organized because otherwise everything else would be scrambled eggs so to speak.

I have to say yes, I'm a busy well organized woman.

I say the less I do, the less I want to do.  I don't do much and can't seem to motivate myself.

Absolutely without a doubt.  I lived that life, raising three children after a divorce and working.  I was a professional building manager, the last one being at Warner Bros in Burbank.  Being in charge of hundreds of thousands of square feet and thousands of my fellow employees plus a staff of twelve doesn't leave time for anything but getting the job done.

 

I honestly believe a busy person will get things done a whole lot faster than someone who has a lot of time on their hands.

Yes

It sounds like it does not make sense but busy people are the ones who do seem to find the time to do something, and to get it done. So often and too often time is wasted and then it is gone forever. Also, it is the same people who volunteer for projects, schools and so on. I prefer busy, doing nothing is not for me, and yes I am a relaxed individual. I enjoy "being".
